“You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book.”
Psalm 56:8
We’ve all been at a place, one time or another, that resulted in heartache. There were those times we got our heart broken from the end of a romantic relationship, or a friendship that ended in betrayal, maybe rejection or abandonment from someone we trusted.
I was told once that the end of a great relationship is like a death, Because something wonderful ended and it just ceases to exist.
That particular part of life as we knew it, is completely gone.
The good news is, that broken hearts are open hearts and God uses broken things.
“It takes broken soil to produce a crop. Broken clouds to give rain. Broken grain to give bread. Broken bread to give strength. It is the broken alabaster box that gives forth sweet perfume.”
-Vance Havner
On our own we cannot do it. But in Christ, it can be done. Have faith that God has plans to prosper you and not harm you.
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
Jeremiah 29:11
At the hardest time of our heartache, we need to cling to God’s promise that he’ll never leave us or abandon us.
(Hebrews 13:5)
Scripture says that “God is close to the broken hearted.” (Psalm 34:18)
We are not alone!
Trust God to heal you. He can heal your broken heart, but you have to give him all the pieces.
When your life seems like a hopeless mess of hurts and heartache, just remember that this heartache won’t last forever and that God is already on the scene.
You’ll have to open your heart to the God who created you. When We allow God to heal our broken hearts, depression and brokenness diminish.
God will not only mend your broken heart, He will open it up to the amazing things life has to offer you. I know this for sure, because He did it for me!
My prayer for you today, is that you’d give God your broken heart.
Many Blessings,
Connie
